Hi all.. As of lately, I have been looking at luxury watch
replicas online. Did some research and apparently it is a big
market with many different grades.
It is hard to determine or segregate against the various qualities,
but you can more or less consider between high quality fakes and
the poor ones.
In Singapore, apparently those you can find are extremely poor
quality and of course sells for as cheap. Usually they aren't solid
steel and just be weighing it, without even look at it you can
tell.
In terms of the better quality ones, they look 70-99% exactly to
the original, depending on exact piece. A great differentiating
factor is the movement. There are the Swiss certified chronometers
with certificate that goes for about SGD700-1000, and those of the
Japanese quartz that are typically SGD100-200.
I understand that China is the best source, but you require a
discerning eye to buy a model that resembles. HK also good source,
but price higher. M'sia is Singaporean's best bet in finding.
Quite interesting.
